What about a courier?
Or a tortoise train, they do that with guinea pig rescues! Everyone drives a part of the journey!

OK, I'm going to put my money where my mouth is If 10 people put up £27.50, we could buy these guys - or 9 people excluding me Homerlovesme can take the sully and the leo, could anyone take on the 2 yellow foots and the cherry head? Then we'd need to organise courier......

I'm happy to pay £110 - think that's 2/5th!!!
Getting sully & Leo up here - more problematic maybe. But perhaps courier or 'tort train' can be looked into. I looked on preloved & saw 'leopard print' tort for sale!!!!! Also someone in Swindon selling a sulcata/leopard hybrid.
